Sex Differences in Labor Markets

Meer over het boek

The book explores the significant disparities between genders in labor markets, particularly in the United States. It highlights three main issues: the earnings gap between men and women, the division of occupations along gender lines, and the disproportionate burden of child care and housework on women, which leads to reduced participation in the workforce. These factors contribute to an ongoing discussion about gender equality and the structural challenges women face in achieving parity in the labor market.
